My name is Franchesca.

It means “she who is free.”

I'm an Austin-based Instructional Designer

but a New Yorker at heart.

I believe great design is human-centered, empathetic, and purpose-driven—it solves real problems and inspires learners to take action. My background as an educator, corporate trainer, and instructional designer has given me a holistic lens on learning design; I build with the end in mind.

Outside of education and design, I enjoy a good cup of coffee, audacious laughter, cycling, exploring new cities, and challenging myself to leave people and places better than I found them.
